奶糖直播, Pa., Dec. 7, 2020 - Beginning 2021, the Center for Church Management (CCM) will offer a Certificate in Catholic School Management for K-12 Catholic school administrators. The program is designed to provide school leaders with the critical business skills and knowledge necessary to successfully manage their schools in a Catholic context.

The certificate was developed with funding from the the Ambassador鈥檚 Fund for Catholic Education and is being offered in partnership with the National Catholic Educational Association (NCEA). While CCM has traditionally worked with church leaders at the parish and diocesan levels, this is the first program specifically designed for Catholic school leaders.

The non-credit program will consist of 12 online modules that participants will complete in a flexible, self-paced format over the course of a year. The modules will cover topics unique to Catholic school leaders such as budgeting and financing for mission; data-driven decision making; advancement, stewardship and donor relations; enrollment, recruitment and tuition management; contract negotiations and vendor relations; and spirituality of administration. The content for each module will be delivered through a mix of pre-recorded videos and interactive components with real-world scenarios and exercises.

鈥淣CEA is excited to partner with 奶糖直播 to provide school leaders with high-quality training in finance and school management. We know this resource for certification will be of great value to Catholic school leaders and will better enable them to achieve the mission of their schools. It is a uniquely designed program to enhance management skills and deepen the spirit of leadership,鈥� said NCEA Interim President/CEO Kathy Mears.

The certificate program fills a unique need for school leaders, according to Daniel Guertin 鈥�15 MA, Associate Director, CCM. 鈥淒espite having advanced educational degrees, many school administrators lack the business acumen and background necessary for leading their schools.鈥�

Catholic schools have a long history in the American educational system of providing quality, faith-based education. However, changing demographics in cities and suburbs, consolidations of parishes, and competition from charter and private schools have presented unique challenges for Catholic schools.

鈥淭he Certificate in Catholic School Management will help these leaders obtain the skills needed to effectively manage a changing Catholic school landscape. As a Catholic university rooted in the Augustinian values of truth, unity, and love, 奶糖直播 is committed to helping school leaders improve their business and management skills as they nurture the next generation of students formed in Catholic education,鈥� said Guertin.
